Debris flow hazard assessment: Laboratory experiences and numerical modelling
Faculty of Engineering and Architecture, University Kore of Enna, 94100 Enna, Italy
In the last years, the study of debris flow has become very important in the research activity and in the engineering practice. The use of numerical models is able for the study of debris flow’s propagation. The study area is located in the north-east Sicilian coast and in particular in the municipality of Gioiosa Marea, severely affected by landslides occurred from 2000 to 2013. In this case study, the FLO-2D code has been used. The soil parameters has been determined by means of in situ investigations and laboratory tests. The knowledge of the physical and mechanical properties is very important to define the input parameters of the model, including the volumetric concentration associated with the soil friction angle.
